I agree with you.
There aren’t any gods in war!

Well man created god so make of it what you will.

MAn creates wars, and most often in the name of their religion. It is merely a BS excuse to kill their version of the infidels.

Isaac Asimov wrote a very good novel with part of this Schiller quote as the title. In spite of the reference to the gods, Asimov was a famous and outspoken atheist. You can't argue with willful ignorance. Thanks for serving.

God is a great deflection and/or rationalization for many. It allows them to not confront any uncomfortable reality or to personally accept any untoward thinking.

I'm not a vet, but imagine that if I were, I would feel like the sacrifice I made and the risks I took were being pissed all over because this implies I was just some fungible commodity, another body who just obediently puppeted his way through the war and survived or not because of the whim of some sky wizard.

"God" sure is a great Cop Out for so many, I find it just an Excuse for ignorance in most cases.

I would throw a wrench in that logic with "If someone decided to commit suicide did God decide it was their time to go?"
